As promised during the 4th Annual BWMTechnology North America Conference in September, Maritime Commons will launch a new ballast water series November 27 from the Assistant Commandant for Prevention Policy, Rear Adm. John Nadeau. In the series, Nadeau will provide greater insight into many of the leading topics discussed during the conference. To give our readers a snapshot of the upcoming 5-part series, Maritime Commons is posting a summary of Coast Guard presentations and comments from the conference.
